Huawei P30 Pro – The Quad Camera Phone

Huawei P30 Pro – The Quad Camera Phone

Huawei has completely blurred the lines between its signature Mate and P series by raising the bar higher and higher every six months. And it has done it yet again with the Huawei P30 Pro – now with an even larger AMOLED screen and a brand-new quad-camera setup that aims to become the new benchmark for the whole industry.

Just as expected the next smartphone Leica camera premieres on the Huawei P30 Pro and now it’s a quad-setup. But Huawei hasn’t just added a ToF sensor and call it a day. Instead, the maker made upgrades across the board – the main snapper has a new 40MP sensor by Sony with improved low-light performance and optical stabilization.

Then Huawei has upped its own game and has introduced an innovative periscopic lens to achieve 5x optical zoom on its 8MP tele camera. The so-called hybrid zoom is available and it’s now 10x, with an option to go as high as 50x – all purely digital, of course.

The third camera is borrowed straight from the Mate 20 Pro – a 20MP snapper with 16mm ultra-wide lens and autofocus.

The fourth and final camera is the aforementioned ToF unit, which promises to take the portrait shots up another notch.

The selfie fans aren’t forgotten – the front camera is now a 32MP one, with AI HDR+ and improved portraits. It still lacks autofocus, sadly.

The selfie snapper occupies the tiny notch on the new 6.47″ AMOLED screen. The panel itself sticks to 1080p resolution and has an under-display fingerprint scanner at the bottom, and also doubles as an earpiece. That’s right, the whole thing is now “acoustic” and vibrates to create sound and thus there is no need for an actual earpiece.

Other niceties coming straight from the Mate 20 Pro are the 40W Super Charging and 15W wireless charging support, as well as the reverse wireless charging.
